It is my great pleasure to Welcome the delegates to the Naval GWar College, and to the CNO’s Seventeenth International SeapoWer Sympo- sium. Last night Was a great kick-off, and I hope to be able to get to know each of you even better during the course of the next few days. In the audience are forty-nine Chiefs of Naval Operations, siX Commandants of Coast Guards, tWenty-seven War College Presidents, and many senior representa- tives from the United States and our most trusted allies and friends. I am particularly pleased to note that nearly 36 of our delegates are alumni of this college, having graduated from our Naval Command College or Naval Staff College. Welcome back to NeWport! You are leaders of the finest navies of the world. Although we have a feW differ- ences in uniform, in language, in culture, We all share the brotherhood of the sea and a set of common bonds that forever link seafarers together: shared experi- ences, mutual respect, honor, and a commitment to Work together for peace. This desire to work together lies at the heart of this Symposium. For over three decades, the leaders of the world’s seafaring nations have gathered on the shores of this historic bay to share ideas, strengthen alliances, and plan for the future. We can all certainly agree that much Water has passed underneath the keel since ISS-1 in the fall of 1969—and that We face significant new challenges. The title of the Symposium is “A Global Network of Nations for a Free and Se- cure Maritime Commons.” ISS-17 is about looking at Ways for maritime forces to participate in voluntary netWorks to increase mutual security in areas that align with individual national interests. We will look at the many ways navies around the world help ensure the peace, promote prosperity, and provide maritime security for their nations, and, together, in coalitions. We are interested in harnessing the power of trust, friendship, and cooperation in Ways that Will benefit us all. I have no doubt that this will be a stimulating, reWarding, and impactful three days. Throughout its history, the ISS has been an intellectual gathering of friends and shipmates. Former U.S. CNO Admiral Arleigh Burke said it best When he noted: “Most important among peoples or among navies or among nations are friends.” It is now my pleasure to introduce your official host for ISS-17: We are very lucky to have the Navy’s Senior Sailor here with us today—Admiral Mike Mullen, the re- cently installed Chief of Naval Operations. Admiral Mullen is a member of the Naval Academy Class of 1968. He is proud to call himself a sailor, and he greW up at sea, matured at sea, and led at sea at all lev- els. He has commanded three ships: the replenishment ship USS Noxubee, the guided missile destroyer USS Goldsborough, and the Aegis cruiser USS Yorktown. 2 Seventeenth International Seapower Symposium As a Flag Officer, he commanded Cruiser-Destroyer Group Two and the George Washington Battle Group. His last command at sea was as Commander, U.S. Sec- ond Fleet/Commander, NATO Striking Fleet Atlantic. Ashore he has served in leadership positions: • At our Naval Academy • In our Bureau of Naval Personnel • In the Office of the Secretary of Defense • On the Navy Staff as Director of Surface Warfare • As the N8—the Deputy for Resources, Requirements, and Assessments, and • As the 32nd Vice Chief of Naval Operations. Admiral Mullen’s most recent operational assignment was Commander, Joint Force Command Naples/Commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe, Where he had operational responsibility for NATO missions in the Balkans, Iraq, and the Mediterranean. We know him not only as an accomplished naval officer, but also as a sincere and generous man, a friend and a mentor. The first time I met Admiral Mullen—he won’t remember this, but I do—was right here in Newport. I was en route to my commander command and a young Captain Mullen was en route to take command of the cruiser Yorktown, and the schedule

  • Arms Procurement Decision Making Volume II: Chile, Greece, Malaysia
    4. Malaysia Dagmar Hellmann-Rajanayagam* I. Introduction Malaysia has become one of the major political players in the South-East Asian region with increasing economic weight. Even after the economic crisis of 1997–98, despite defence budgets having been slashed, the country is still deter- mined to continue to modernize and upgrade its armed forces. Malaysia grappled with the communist insurgency between 1948 and 1962. It is a democracy with a strong government, marked by ethnic imbalances and affirmative policies, strict controls on public debate and a nascent civil society. Arms procurement is dominated by the military. Public apathy and indifference towards defence matters have been a noticeable feature of the society. Public opinion has disregarded the fact that arms procurement decision making is an element of public policy making as a whole, not only restricted to decisions relating to military security. An examination of the country’s defence policy- making processes is overdue. This chapter inquires into the role, methods and processes of arms procure- ment decision making as an element of Malaysian security policy and the public policy-making process. It emphasizes the need to focus on questions of public accountability rather than transparency, as transparency is not a neutral value: in many countries it is perceived as making a country more vulnerable.1 It is up 1 Ball, D., ‘Arms and affluence: military acquisitions in the Asia–Pacific region’, eds M.

  • Armies and Public Security Missions Juan Rial
    Armies and Public Security Missions Juan Rial / RESDAL Approach. Introduction Over the past decade various Latin American countries have developed reflec- 1 tions and experiences that are relevant to the missions of armies in the context of the current and future challenges confronting the security and defence sectors. This has included the need to tackle complex themes related to characteristics of conflicts that are under study not just in this region but across the world, such as violence and citizen insecurity or the increased risks posed by natural disasters, issues that among other things require doctrines and plans to be updated. This supposes the study and analysis of tendencies, the elaboration of roadmaps, and dialogue with the distinct strands of domestic stakeholders. As a result of a project directed by RESDAL and funded by the Canadian Global Peace and Security Fund, this paper seeks to contribute to the process of trans- formation set in motion by the Colombian Army, promoting a transmission of experiences from the Latin American region at a time when the current Colom- bian experience – a 21st century post-conflict process - is put into the spotlight. Defi nitions, Myths and Realities National defence is understood to concern the political and military activities 2Defence developed by modern states to avoid or to repel military attacks that other states could eventually carry out.1 A more up-to-date concept includes a re- sponse to the threats provided by non-state actors, such as, for example, ter- rorist groups, companies, etc., generally transnational in nature, that resort to illegal practices.
